I am a family childcare facility. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education and have a passion for working with children. Even though my center is based out of my home I feel that curriculum and activities are important for children. Throughout the day your child will be engaged and interested in the environment and social interactions around them. I will not just be a babysitter I am a teacher and want to do what is best for each child. I care for children aging from 6 weeks to 5 years old.

At Peniel Daycare, I implement all that I know from my experience as a teacher and family worker. I assess children's progress and provide family support. I create an environment of hospitality from the time children arrive all the way through the end of the day. I use a schedule and curriculum to structure the day, and I focus on emotional, physical, and cognitive development of infants, toddlers and Pre-K through everything we do. My curriculum is filled with activities that aid development, urge creativity, and facilitate exploration. I approach language development through reading and using music, creating personalized learning strategies, and motivating kids as individuals. I also focus on supporting parents. It can be hard to help kids develop, and sometimes parents need motivation, too. What is NeighborSchools?

My goal is to provide a developmentally safe and inclusive environment for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children. I like to provide a stimulating, early learning experience that will help promote healthy self-esteem, as well as the childrens' social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development. Ultimately, I'm helping prepare them for the long-term future and I take that very seriously. I feel that if they have good learning experience when they're young, it'll influence how they respond to education as they grow up. We make sure to have a lot of fun while learning! We have a play-based approach, there are no drill sergeants here. I am a patient, responsible, reliable, flexible, kind and humorous person and this translates to the children in their learning developmentally and with life skills. I put a huge emphasis on my interactions with the children, and I love teaching them how to interact with others. I enjoy fostering good behavior and positive attitude, giving them a lot of time to explore and discover so many facets of this new world for them. We love story time and circle time. It's a time of great connection with the children. Everyone has an opportunity to express themselves, talk and answer questions about the story, or talk about the weather and other subjects. I've had kids who cannot sit still but during circle time always focus in! I try to liven up story time every way I can because I know how much the engagement means to the kids. I change my tone of voice, get out hand puppets, anything that will make it super fun and engaging for the kiddos. Afterwards we may pull an activity from the story, like an art project. I find stories to be the foundation of many of our days. I am big on encouraging everyone to participate in every activity, while also providing for their individual needs if they are unable. We spend time learning kindness, respect, trust, honesty, compassion, responsibility, independence, hygiene and manners. It is my duty to help the parents prepare their children for the rest of their lives! I do daily communication forms for parents, send photos throughout the day, and see most every day. I am confident that their children have a lot of room for exploration in my care while they are developing important skills. What is NeighborSchools?

J&J Daycare includes structured activities and lots of opportunities to learn through experience and discovery. It's wonderful to see kids express themselves through art activities like painting and drawing. Sometimes these will be with assigned tasks like 'draw a picture of your family', and other times they will be about expression and whatever the kids are thinking and want to create. Music is the same way. There will be lots of music. Sometimes we will sing songs, and other times I will play music and we will sing and dance together but all in our own ways. When it's not cold, we will go outside and work in a little garden. Kids learn and discover so much from planting tomatoes and strawberries and observing them every day. There will also be some more formal learning for the kids in the program, depending on what they need. I speak English and Spanish and a little Italian, so I'll incorporate elements of those languages. My granddaughter is learning all three languages, and I see how wonderful it is for her.

In my program, I want to help the children grow up in an environment of respect, love, care, and equal opportunities for growth. I am highly attentive to their development in every area, from gross and fine motor skills to social, emotional, and cognitive. I want to do everything that I can to improve their chances of developing to their highest ability. For me, it is very important to see how each individual child learns so I can teach every one of them. Every day they learn something new. I like to convey how unique and serious my program is in development, even though we're also having a ton of fun while doing so. I'm also confident that what the children do daily in my program strengthens the teaching that happens in the home. Some of my favorite activities to do with the children are crafts and painting, and working with blocks and geometric shapes. While we're serious about learning, we're also serious about having fun.

I aim to set children up for successful, happy futures by focusing on activities that build not only their skills but also their personalities. Young children are able to absorb so much information, and I want to teach them as much as possible while they are with me. In addition to learning shapes, colors, and numbers and how to write their names and phone numbers, they also listen to music, work on art projects, and practice small phrases in French and Arabic. We love to play outside as often as the weather allows. My goal is to provide as many opportunities as possible for children to learn, explore, and grow in a nurturing and safe environment. My relationship with parents extends far beyond drop-off and pick-up. When you and your children are in my home, you are my family. As a gift to parents, I offer 2-3 hours of free care on their birthday so that they can celebrate or just take some time to relax while I watch their child. What is NeighborSchools?

I work with kids in a very child-focused way. I provide some structure, and I balance that with allowing children to guide their learning through their interests. We have a topic of the week and engage with that topic through many of our activities, which can include sensory bins, projects, art activities, baking, and outdoor observation. We do lots of hands-on, fun activities that emphasize independence and encourage each child's natural desire to learn. My vision for the program is to guide children into becoming compassionate, independent, confident, intrinsically motivated humans. All children are different, but all children love to play! Here, we play to learn, and we follow each child's lead. What is NeighborSchools? NeighborSchools helps experienced caregivers launch and operate licensed home daycares in Massachusetts.

Daily activities at Sandy's Tiny Tykes Daycare focus on encouraging the imagination. I have a reading area, art and coloring space, and lots of opportunities to play with different sensory items. My program space has a really comfy rug, so we can have fun playing games on the floor. I think it's important for kids to have activities that trigger their imagination. I'm so excited to have my own program and the ability to cater to the unique needs of each child. Every child is different, and I'm a firm believer in letting the kids be themselves. I've created general schedules for the day, but everything will be tweaked once I've met the kids, and I'm able to see what they respond to. I love introducing different activities to explore their little minds. You can see them really thinking and processing, and it's so rewarding when something clicks. What is NeighborSchools?

FAQs for finding a family daycare near you in Atkinson, NH

When looking for a family daycare near you in Atkinson, NH, the most important thing to consider is the safety, comfort, and well-being of your child. Depending on your family's needs, make sure to inquire about the family daycare provider's experience in caring for children of similar ages. Ask about their qualifications, resources available for learning and development, such as toys or educational materials. Additionally, consider inquiring about how the family daycare provider structures their days; if they provide meals or snacks; and if they allow you to have a tour of their facility. It is also important that you feel comfortable with the family daycare provider and that they understand your family's values and priorities. Taking these points into consideration when selecting a family daycare can help ensure that your child has a safe and nurturing environment in which to thrive.

When selecting a family daycare provider, families may want to consider factors such as location, value for costs, hours of operation, and licensing requirements and monitoring standards. Additionally, it is worth evaluating any safety regulations in place at the facility and paying attention to reviews from past or current clients. Upon visiting the family daycare near you in Atkinson, NH, there should be a sense that it is clean and well-organized, and the staff should be friendly and welcoming. All of these aspects help ensure that not only are the family's needs met and children are receiving the best possible care.

When choosing family daycare near you in Atkinson, NH, it is essential to be thorough! Consider what's most important to you and when choosing a child care provider, and don't be afraid to ask questions when interviewing potential daycares. You should also schedule a visit to meet with the family daycare provider and observe the environment. You may ask them questions such as: How does the daycare staff interact with the children? Are there toys, materials, and appropriate activities for the age group of children in their care? Are there any qualifications, certifications, background checks, and child-to-adult ratio of staff information they can share with you? All of these questions as well as any additional considerations that are important to you should help you make an informed decision.
